CHAPTER SIX

They were almost there, and Kiko let out a grateful sigh. She was beginning to chill, but only down to the bone, so there was nothing really important to worry about. She was just fine…except for the shivering she couldn't seem to control, and the whole freezing part! She could see white puffs of smoke every time she let out a breath, and her teeth were beginning to rattle. One thing she knew never to do ever again: fly wearing minimal clothing…like the skimpy nightgown Neko bought for her.

She growled, trying to gain more body heat from Sesshoumaru, holding him as close as she possibly could. Looking back, she could see Rin and Kohaku supposedly trying to do as she was: gain warmth. She snorted. The only thing they probably wanted to do was snuggle, among other things. They were teenagers after all. She clucked her tongue at them, knowing they couldn't hear, but Sesshoumaru could.

"What?" she asked as he looked down at her with a questioning gaze. He followed her focus of attention, seeing the two young lovebirds on Ah-Un's back. A growl resounded throughout his chest.

"Leave `em be…" she stammered, almost positive her lips and fingers were blue, if not her entire body. "We'll be landing soon, right?"

Sesshoumaru nodded.

"Will there be anything warm nearby, like a hot, hot springs or an erupting volcano where I can either boil or fry to a nice warm crisp?"

"There will be a hot springs," he stated simply.

"I know the first thing I'm doin' then!"

"And what would that be?" he inquired.

"I…am going to melt! Or at the very least get warm blood flowing in and out of my arteries and veins instead of the ice crystals that have been forming since we took off!"

He looked at her, amusement playing in his golden eyes as he looked down at her again. He couldn't help the little smile that found it's way up to his lips. He continued to listen to her, rambling on.

"...and if there are any spiders there, they'd better hope they stay unseen. I'm really not up to sharing a bath with anymore eight-legged creatures. I've had enough of that!"

As soon as they landed, she did just as she told him, she made a beeline straight for the hot springs, after Sesshoumaru pointed her in the right direction, of course; Rin soon followed.

By the time she got there, Kiko was already in, swimming around rather happily, and motioning Rin to join her.

"I see you're enjoying this," she said, getting in as well.

"Oh yeah! You better believe it! The only thing I'm not looking forward to is getting out…"

"Well," Rin supplied. "We should be back at the castle by tomorrow, so you won't have to wear that for much longer," she said, motioning to the forgotten nightgown laying on a rock next to her kimono.

"I hope never to wear that again. The next time I see Neko, I'm going to kill her! She's always complaining that I never wear what she gives me, and the first time I do, I end up…here, in a place I have no idea where."

On the other side of the well sat a certain brooding hanyou, sitting up in the God Tree, muttering about the antics of crazy, hormonal women. Jumping when a familiar scent hit his nose, almost making him fall out off of the branch, he suddenly realized something.

"Kagome!" he yelled, bursting into the kitchen. "Kagome, I think I know who she's with!"

Nekkyo suddenly jumped at him, grabbing a hold of his shirt with both fists, she started shaking him. "Where?! Where the hell is she?!"

"Neko-chan, you may want to let go of him," Kagome said calmly, her hands still in the soapy water, still scrubbing away at the dirty dishes.

Appeasing Kagome, Neko let Inuyasha go, and it was a few minutes before he regained his momentum.

"I think she's with…Sesshoumaru," he explained as he teetered over into a chair at the kitchen table.

"Hey!" Neko exclaimed, her fists pounding the table. "Isn't he your psycho brother?"

"Actually," replied Kagome, drying her hands on a dishtowel and coming over to them. "He's only Inuyasha's half-brother, and he's not as psycho as he used to be. They can at least stand each other, anyway."

"I don't care who the hell he is! I'm going down there right now, and I'm taking dog-boy with me!"

"Okay," called Kagome, returning to the sink. "Just be back for dinner!"

Making her way to the well house, pulling Inuyasha along with her, she suddenly met the chest of a red-haired spirit detective. Looking up to face him, she grinned sheepishly as he raised an eyebrow; then she grabbed his hand and jumped into the well. Surprisingly, a purplish-blue light surrounded them, and then they were sitting at the bottom, looking into a blue sky.

Neko let out a whoop of joy, jumping up as she began to climb up the vines lining the walls of the well, the others following closely behind her. Inuyasha in the lead, he led the to a small village a short ways away. Soon, however, a certain monk confronted them.

"Ah, Inuyasha. I see you have brought more visitors, and what lo-"

"Hey, you must be Miroku, right?" Neko asked, a devilish smile taking place upon her face. "You're married to the demon exterminator Sango, right? Well, I have a question to ask you: Would you bare my children?"

Miroku's jaw suddenly went slack, Inuyasha collapsed out of laughter, and Kurama just stood there, trying to hold back his chuckling.

"I guess that's a `no', huh?" Neko continued, trying to convince them that she was sad. "I've tried that question so many times, and nobody ever answers…hmph!" She tripped over Inuyasha, taking Kurama down with her, and the trio just laughed harder, those whom had heard doing so as well.

A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in so long, I've been caught in several stories, and I am proud to say I have finally finished Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, after putting it off for three times since I first bought it…Anyway, I couldn't help but put Neko asking Miroku The Question. I came up with it when I was Instant Messaging my friend whom I semi-based Neko on. I've also been working on several stories, though I don't often post those. My fanfic "Hybrids, Foxes, and Spirit Detectives" already has ten chapters, and I am working on the eleventh, as I am working on the seventh of this one. I will try to post as soon as I can.
